ECHoLS COUNTY NOTES.
Col. Terry's Big Naval Stores Fa

Col. Terry's Big Naval Stores Farm
TARvER, ECHoLs COUNTY, GA, Aug. 1.
-Tarver, or Huckleberry, as it is some
times called, is on the branch Of the Savan-
nah, Florida and Western railway, $50 miles
from Savannah and about twenty miles
south of Dupont, near the Florida line.
This is one of the busiest little towns in
South Georgia. 1t is in IA good agricultural
region and the forests of pine are
second to none in Georgia or in the South
The people of the town as well as of the
surrounding country are intelligent and
home-loving. Churches and schools are
not as numerous as they should be, but the
people up to the average in morals and
education Crops are looking fine and
promise moro than an average yield.
Echols is prohibition county, and 1t can
be truthfully said that prohibition does pro-
hibit here. Drunkenness is something only
occasionally heard of and not seen
The large business enterprises of Col. T.
W. Terry, located about twelve miles east
of Tarver, are worthy of notice. He is a
self-made man, having come to Georgia
from Cheraw, 5. G. about nine years ago
with only a pair of mules. he is to-day one
OF the leading manufacturers of naval stores
IN the South, doing business OF about
S29O,OOO per annum.
Col. Terry has on his farm this season 1875
virgin crops and nearly as many yearling
crops To carry on his business about 800
hands are required aud about 100 head of
horses and mules
About 200 barrels Of spirits and 600 TO 700
barrels of rosin are produced every week
Besides his home farm Col. Terry owns
and operates another, about six miles above
T0rver, which is under the management of
his brother Mr.. George Terry.

vember. Monday morning a good many OF
the citizens of the county, not knowing OF
the order of the Judge adjourniDg the court,
came to town. Several members OF the bar
were circulating petitions praying that the
time of holding the court should be changed
from January and July to April and Octo-
Der, and each petition had secured long
line of signatures. By request of Judge j.
B. Wolfe and Capt. G. w. Bishop, a citi-
zen's meeting was called. 1t was the
object of these gentlemen to pass a resolu-
ton transferring Lourens from the Oconee
TO either the Ocmulgee or Middle circuits.
Col. Stubs violently opposed the resolu-
ton, denouncing it as a grave reflection
upon the Judge and an action unworthy the
intelligent people of the unity. He said
the people should have more stability of
character than to allow themselves 70 be
kicked back and forth as a football from
one circuit to another, and called upon the
citizens to vote down the resolution.
Capt. r. A Stanley agreed with Col.
Stubs, and told of the means re-
sorted to in changing Laurens from
the Oconee TO Judge Lawson's circuit.
T. L. Griner, Esq, also opposed the
resolution and suggested that a substitute
extending sympathy to the Judge, anguish
ing upon a sick bed, would be an action
more suitable to an intelligent and gener-
hearted people Judge j. b. Wolfe
charged that crime was on the increase in
Laurens county, that the Jail was filled with
criminals through the neglect of the Judge
to hold the courts, that it was to the interest
Of the people that the county be transferred
to some other circuit and called upon those
present TO support the resolution. A call
for the question being sustained the substi-
tute was put upon its passage and passed by
a vote of 33 to 81. A motion to adjourn
was then made and carried, notwithstand-
ing the secretary begged and implored the
people not to vote for adjournment.

A Young Girls Romance.

Several days ago handsome young
girl applied for position as dining
room girl at the Huron House. She was
engaged. Her beauty was much ad.
mired by the boarders. In fact Dave
Stephenson, the manager was heard to
remark to DR.. Brown that the boarders
were so taken up with the new girl that
the expense of running the dining room
was decreasing The guests would
rathersgaze on the girl than eat. Steph-
ensoncould see a big bonanza in the
girl. But a cloud appeared upon the
horizon and an officer of the law ap-
peared upon the scene and said the girl
must accompany him to Brockway. 1t
appears that the girls parents, Mr.. and
Mrs Geo. X. Davis, reside near Brock
way. They wanted her to marry a
young man of that township. She OBJ
jected and ran away from home and
was engaged at the Huron House un-
der the name of Miss McFadden.
When confronted by the officer and re-
cogniZing that she must return
home to her parents, was seized with
Mysteries and has been confined to her
bed ever since. Her sister arrived last
night and is taking care of her. The
bOarders are now eating three full meals
day, and Dave is on the lookout for
another beauty.

The winter term began Jan. 3rd,. and
ended Apr. Sth, making three and one
half months of school. The enrolment
has been large and the attendance
quite regular. There have been how
ever some cases of unnecessary absence.
Hardness has been common evil in
all the rooms. Parents are especially
requested to assist the teachers in their
endeavors to remove this as much as
possible from the schools.
A system of monthly reports from tea
chers to parents has been adopted and
will be used this term. Parents and
others interested i'm the cause of educa-
ton, are earnestly requested to visit
the schools and examine into the me-
thods of instruction, and the nature of
the discipline employed by the teachers
and into the progress of the pupils. A
hearty cooperation Of parents and tea
chers is necessary in order to secure the
greatest good TO the pupils. +. 4. LAW

there found nearly 200 Angora goat,
camped for the night ON rocks about
thirty feet east Of and below the summit
They were in fun sight Of Tahoe and the
best views from the summit. There was
line, green mountain pasture, soft soil
bedding and shelter down below them a
mile or two, but they preferred the rocks
OF the summit and the keener air and
magnificent mountain pictures. Their
bed was nearer the stars, and they would
have the very earliest sight of the morning
sun. Four hundred of this breed OF goats
Were, live years ago, every one killed by
lightning near the same spot. They Were
the property OF the same owner, Mr.. Gil
more ut Glen Alpine Springs. Many OF
them were pure or half pure breeds. The
herd was worth ut least 81, 900. They
were dead several days before they We're
discovered. so that not even their pelts
Were saved.
These goats ARE not herded, they take
care OF themselves altogether. and except
for being salted-that is, supplied with
salt Ia Ii X twice n week-they get no care
or watching. Theyhre shorn once a year
and yield three to fou pounds of mohair,
which Is worth fifty cents n pound. No
hair Is used very largely for railroad car
